Seeing any team at 6-6 going bowling just seems an injustice to me. And yeah, I'd say the exact same about the Cajuns.

I like that C-USA places all 7-5 teams before allowing a 6-6 team to be chosen.

They're trying to get their players into a bowl game.

Would I do it, probably not. But, I don't fault them for doing it.

When it comes to at-large bowl spots it's really not up to the conference.

Since the I bowl is not tied to the Sun Belt, its really hard to be frustrated if ULM gets the bid. Warhawks have a history in the game...that is their advantage to have.

RE: Really ULM?
Let's see....with no tie in, schools have to work to get at-large bids to bowl games. This is another way of getting folks to let the Indy Bowl that we have an interest....a big interest.....to come to Shreveport. We are a small school in a small, non AQ conference that has only 2 guaranteed bowls. We flooded their facebook page last year and they took notice. We sold over 12,000 tickets through the school and they took notice. They are losing their sponsor, they know they are going to get crappy ratings due to the time slot, and they know that they are going to match a 6-6 ACC team against another 6-6 team.

This is an AD thinking outside the box and busting his butt to get the players into a bowl game. It rewards the players and it helps the school. If it gets us in, then great. If it doesn't, then at least he is trying which is a heck of a lot more than the last AD...which is why he is no longer the AD and working at FIU.

Hey, I'm just glad we have an AD that is working the phones and doing everything possible to get a bowl bid. That's the first time in a while we have had administration that is forward thinking and aggressive. He is the real deal.

Also, everyone knows that if the Cajuns reach 6-6 and that champ can be placed somewhere they are going to New Orleans regardless of their record. You know you'd take it to if it came to you. Being close to Shreveport and having lot of alums there is our advantage.

You have this forum's posters mixed up with anyone caring what coosa does. OK?

If I were a ULM fan i'd be happy with it and support it.

As a general fan of the sport, I think teams with 6-6 records should not be allowed in bowl games at all.

Overall, I agree. I even think most 7-5 teams shouldn't be in bowls.

But you better believe that should we get an invite, I'd be happy than a pig in slop.

Our AD is being very proactive. We are the only team on their list (except ND) that will fill up their side of the stadium (again). Also leveraging the Duck Dynasty boys and Tim Brando to help make it happen.

I have zero problem with the WarHawks lobbing effort. Anyone who does is either foolish, or jealous.

RE: Really ULM?
If in the future EVERY SBC who has a 7-5 or better record gets a bowl game I would consider that very fair. If there are slot left after all 7-5 teams go bowling then I have no problem with a 6-6 team bowling, but I think all 7-5 or better teams should go first.

I love what our AD is doing and it will only help in the long run regardless of whether or not we get the bowl. We would put more butts in the seats than any other team on the I bowls radar except the Irish.
